Protein production: going viral – Architecture of essential human transcription factor revealed

Protein production: going viral - Architecture of essential human transcription factor revealed - A research team of scientists from EMBL Grenoble and the IGBMC in Strasbourg, France, have, for the first time, described in molecular detail the architecture of the central scaffold of TFIID: the human protein complex essential for transcription from DNA to mRNA. The study, published today in Nature, opens new perspectives in the study of transcription and of the structure and mechanism of other large multi-protein assemblies involved in gene regulation.(10.1038/nature11791)
